About

The Christian Renewal Center is located on 52 beautiful wooded acres on the bayou in Dickinson, Texas, easily located off I-45 and in-between Houston and Galveston. The CRC has four different meeting spaces to accommodate groups of various sizes with different types of lodging, including bunk-houses that sleep up to 16 people each and rooms that can accommodate individuals and families. The CRC has two Catholic chapels, covered sports pavilion, a large swimming pool, and bayou access. The CRC hosts groups year-round, including family, individual, and youth retreats. The CRC is owned by the Catholic Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston and used by individuals, religious organizations, churches, businesses, and education. 

The Christian Renewal Center is a full service, dedicated Catholic retreat center conveniently located on 52 wooded acres south of Houston; long standing in the community and accomplished in both the hosting of  Christian retreats for all ages and ethnicities, and the offering of formatted and directed retreats in both  English and  Spanish, intended for spiritual growth and a closer relationship with our  Lord Jesus Christ. As is our catholic namesake, we seek to draw all peoples with the richness of their cultures to be one in Christ. The reality is- no one but Jesus Himself can do this- but with hearts open to Him, He can then move freely and do His marvelous work. And that is what the CRC is all about!

We are operated by the CRC Retreat Partners, Inc. and assisted by local lay ministers, clergy, and those devoted to  Jesus Christ. 

MISSION OF THE CRC:

"To draw people into a relationship with Jesus Christ and His Church through retreat ministry."
